Some families draw up legal contracts so the parent can pay the adult child for help. Because of Medicaid laws, it's a good idea to make it legal.
Good luck,

Hi Christen,
You also can check with home care provider organizations in your community. If you become an employee, and go through their training program, you can get paid by the company for taking care of a loved one.
